Bring spring indoors with an easy-to-craft ombré egg wreath.
MANTEL
MOMENT
Place fresh flowers
in a mix of vases (or
even a pitcher!) for
a cheery display.
Gather Materials
You’ll need an 18'' metal wreath form,
foam craft eggs in various sizes, a
faux lamb’s ear branch, tissue paper
in multiple shades (cut into ¼’’ and
⅜’’ strips), a glue stick, and a glue gun.
Cover Eggs
Use the glue stick to attach a paper
strip to a foam egg lengthwise.
Apply a second strip around the egg
horizontally. Add strips at varying
angles until the egg is covered.
Decorate Wreath
Clip faux leaves from the branch
and hot-glue onto the wreath form.
Arrange eggs as desired and hot-glue
to leaves and each other. Fill in the
gaps with additional glued leaves.
